	<h2>University drudgery</h2>
	<p>
		I spent more time working on the discussion assignment today.

			The square root of five is irrational.
			This means it cannot be properly expressed as a decimal number.
			When you express it as a decimal as you&apos;re doing, you&apos;re having to either truncate it or round it, depending on how your calculator is implemented.
			So basically, your decimal answer compared to the real answer is like <code>5</code> compared to <code>5.00001</code>.
			You lose a little precision in converting it into a decimal representation.

			So if a diode on each side is feeding into the bus and another is receiving from the bus, how do the senders not interfere during the points they aren&apos;t in use?

			I live near University of Oregon as well; within biking distance, in fact!
			They offer the only proctor service I know of in the area, so I bike there every time I need exams here at the other university proctored.
			I agree though, the tuition at that school (and others in the area) is too high to be affordable.
			I&apos;d prefer a brick and mortar school, I think I&apos;d thrive there better, but it&apos;s not an expense I can pay.
			At least here at this school, the tuition is only \$100 $a[USD] per course.
			I&apos;ve never seen another university that can even come close to matching that price.
			And who can blame the brick and mortar schools?
			It&apos;d cost more than that just to pay the power bill, water bill, and property tax.

	<blockquote>

			You must be pretty busy between your full-time job and part-time jobs.
			Teaching isn&apos;t an easy job, either!
			It&apos;s not quite the same as being a university professor, but one of my parents is an elementary school teacher.
			It really keeps them busy, so they don&apos;t have time for much outside of work.
			I can&apos;t imagine them having additional part-time jobs on top of that.

	<h2>Thoughts on my day job</h2>
	<p>
		The end is in sight, and I find that thought uplifting.
		I have a very fixed timeline of how much longer I have to keep this job.
		I need to stay because I need the help of my driving-instructor-to-be in getting my driver license, but by the end of July, I&apos;ll be free to leave.
		In a best-case scenario, I acquire my license.
		In a worst-case scenario, my permit expires before I can finish learning and taking the driving test.
		If that happens, there&apos;ll no longer be any rush to learn, and I can simply do so when there&apos;s more time.
		In either case, I no longer have a reason to stay, come July 11, when my time is up.
		At that point, if not sooner, I can look for a better job.
